Terminal, command line work in gentoo is not that difficult.  But this
project will be mostly terminal based with regards to testing/debugging
catalyst.  Gui work will be limited to using an editor, browser and
perhaps a git gui frontend like gitg.

Just get started so you will know enough about gentoo to be able to put
together a decent proposal that shows some understanding of gentoo's
package management system, configuration and operation of catalyst.
